Hiatus consistently delivers an exceptional dining experience anchored by breathtaking city views from the top, refined Japanese-French fusion dishes that are beautifully presented and flavorful, and attentive, professional service that many describe as top-tier. The tasting menus and course services are widely praised for variety and pacing, with standout wine pairings and inventive cocktails noted by guests. Some critics mention very small portions for the price and occasional slow or uneven service, while others point to a busy atmosphere or reservation hiccups; nevertheless, the combination of views, ambiance, and high-quality food and service makes Hiatus a memorable destination, especially for special occasions or sunset dining.
The food & service was fantastic. Wishing you much success & that Hiatus becomes a landmark of a location to dine for all montrealers & tourists. Merci

I find that the considering high end dining experience clients should be able to have a less cafeteria style seating (side by side ) i personally enjoy table where we each have a side ! Just saying👍
Superbe Endroit & service A1 de la part de Olivier! Carte de vins & Champagnes recherchée & super bien présentée par Claude ! Ce fut un souper de célébration oh que réussi, le tout, avec une vue splendide & une ambiance décontractée !
Nous avons adoré l'ambiance & notre arrivée. Cependant, malgré son amicalité, la serveuse a mal répondu à nos attentes. On a demandé une cuisson de viande bleue, elle était médium-saignante. Une personne a fait part de son intolérance au lactose sauf au beurre (maladie du colon irritable). Elle a quand même conseillé une assiette avec de la crème, ce qui a causé des troubles d'ingestion à un convive. Ce manque de sensibilité me semble un manque de professionnalisme, surtout pour un restaurant de votre stature.
Wow. The staff here? Incredible. Right from arrival with smiling, happy people to greet us - to our amazing servers & bartenders. Everyone was simply awesome to be around. They kept us laughing & entertained ALL NIGHT LONG. 😍 The food being sublime also helped, not a single dish was unmemorable - the flavours were all stellar. HIGHLY recommend. Oh, & the views were spectacular. 🤘
Among the most beautiful scenery in Montreal. In this classy environment, you will be served like a sultan by all the waiters & staff. Pageau helped us pick & choose our delicious meals, ended up taking wagyu beef & black cod. You have to try their bluefin tuna appetizer. In other words, Japan meets French cuisine. Well done, will be back times again. Only upgrade I could suggest is the wine list, fairly limited with +-10 products only.
Coup de coeur, rien de moins! Ce fut une première visite, mais ce ne sera pas la dernière. Assurément une adresse que je vais m'assurer de fréquenter régulièrement & qu'il me fera plaisir de recommander à mon entourage. De la sélection des vins, au service des serveurs, de la qualité des repas aux parfaites présentations des sommeliers, de l'ambiance sur les deux étages aux décors plus que parfaits. Nous avons adoré, à très bientôt!
